Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
Cheap Dollar Store breakfast blend coffee out of a cup with a broken handle. Getting ready to do battle with a twelve foot pre-lit Christmas tree. Going to replace the ratty door on one of the bathrooms later this morning. Putting a really nice Mirafone 5V Eb this afternoon. First Holiday concert tonight. Very busy but life is GREAT!

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
My sister-in-law brought this as a host/hostess gift on Thanksgiving. This is absolutely the BEST coffee I have ever tasted. It is from the Pancake Shop in Hot Springs, Ar.

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
Yes... I serve on the committee that puts the event on each year. My favorite beer glass is in the background. ... Thomas Kemper 'Big Fat Tuba' Oktoberfest Beer. I bought a dozen of them on Ebay several years ago and have not seen any for sale since.tbn.al wrote:Bet you got that wine glass in the forefront at the wine/jazz festival.

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
13 Corners Whiskey, from Wishkah River Distillery in Aberdeen, WA on the not-so-populous Pacific coast. I believe it's half barley, maybe a third wheat and the rest rye - all Washington grain, I believe that may be a requirement imposed as part of the laws governing distilleries here. Anyway, a potent liquid that I enjoy the most when I drink the least, really - it's truly delicious, but it takes only a sip or two to make the point, and another sip or two to make you forget it.

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
I recently got tired of the sludge at the bottom of coffee from my French press and bought an el cheapo Melitta filter cone coffee maker and carafe (under $10). It makes much cleaner tasting coffee, and after a bit of experimenting with grinds and techniques, I can get the coffee to taste just like I want. Sometimes the really good things in life are cheap and easy (no Like Your Mama jokes, please).

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
I 'splurged' this evening while watching Sochi 2014. Polished off a big bowl of salty... buttery popcorn along with a generous triple shot of Dalwhinnie (straight, of course!.)

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
Just polished off a bowl of salty butter-flavored popcorn and a triple shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey. This is gettin' to be a habit! (of course, on the 21st it was a triple of Dahlwinnie!)

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
Yup... my dad's family 'old folks' in Detroit always had Vernon's ginger ale in the house. I haven't heard about Vernon's for a while. Thanks!Curmudgeon wrote:Jameson and ginger ale. "Vernon's" to be exact.

A Crater Lake hot pepper infused vodka by Bend Distillery. It might work in a Bloody Mary...

Re: What are YOU drinking right now?
Yup. The 'old folks' would mix gin and Vernon's and called them 'high-balls'.Curmudgeon wrote:....As you probably remember, Vernon's is not like the typical bar mixer ginger ale like Schweppes or Canada Dry. It much "hotter" or spicier. A perfect match for the Jameson...
